Custom Agenda Commands tutorial

Custom Agenda Commands tutorial

[Matthew Lundin]

Hi everyone,

Since questions often arise on the list about custom agenda command
configuration, I tried my hand at writing a tutorial for Worg. My goal
was to describe the basic components of the configuration and to
provide a number of scenarios in which one might want to use custom
agenda commands. The new tutorial can be found here:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-custom-agenda-commands.php

If you spot any errors, please feel free to email me or to fix them
yourself.

Also, a quick question about Worg for more experienced users. I added
a directory of images under my initials (mdl) to the "images"
directory in Worg, where other tutorial images reside. I was expecting
this directory to be published with the other static files, but it has
not yet made its way on to the website. Any ideas?

I hope the tutorial proves useful.

Regards, 
Matt

Hi Matthew,

the image directory in Worg is now published correctly, this was a  
problem in our setup.

Hm. What internal commands I could use to do the same? I have several
top level [/] markers that I'd to update at once. Stepping over them for
TODO task chnages is too much work as they go out of synch regularly.

Hi Jari,

how about checking out the Manual section about checkboxes?
It describes a command that will globally update all these
counters.
